^e  CALIFORNIA  MINES  AND  MINERALS  ,^ 

Compiled  from  Original  Records  of  the  State   Mining   Bureau. 

THE  mining  interests  of  the  State  of  California  are  so  diversified,  and  the  industry  is  extended  over  so  wide  an 
area,  that  it  is  difficult  to  describe  the  conditions  which  exist  without  using  many  pages  of  printed  matter.  For 
this  reason  it  has  been  considered  proper,  in  this  pamphlet,  to  give  merely  a  record  of  results,  which  will  show  in 
plain  figures  what  is  being  accomplished  by  the  miners  of  the  State.  This  record  shows  that  some  fifty-three  mineral 
substances  are  being  exploited,  the  annual  valuation  of  which  is  now  $55,697,949,  and  increasing  as  capital  is  invested 
and  more  mines  and  quarries  are  opened.  The  older  mines,  too,  having  been  well  developed  and  equipped,  are  increas- 
ing their  annual  output,  and  thus  also  proving  their  permanency  and  value  with  depth.  For  the  past  twenty-one  years 
the  total  mineral  output  of  California  amounts  to  $608,173,892. 

The  climatic  conditions  are  favorable  to  mining  operations  throughout  the  State,  and  means  of  transportation 
have  been  so  improved  as  to  greatly  lessen  costs  of  supplies,  etc.  There  are  abundant  opportunities  for  the  safe 
and  profitable  investment  of  capital  in  the  various  branches  of  the  industry,  as  numerous  claims  which  have  been 
located  have  never  been  properly  developed  or  equipped,  their  owners  lacking  the  necessary  means. 

The  State  Mining  Bureau,  maintained  by  State  aid,  provides  numerous  publications  in  the  form  of  bulletins  or 
reports,  giving  in  detail  the  conditions  existing  in  gold,  copper,  quicksilver,  petroleum,  and  all  the  various  branches 
of  mining.  It  also  publishes  maps  of  the  counties  which  show  the  location  of  all  mines,  roads,  streams,  etc.  The 
Bureau  is  in  charge  of  a  State  Mineralogist,  who  has  a  corps  of  trained  Field  Assistants,  and  an  office  force  as  well. 
There  is  a  fine  technical  library,  and  a  very  large  museum  showing  specimens  of  all  mineral  products,  suitably 
arranged  for  reference.     There  is  also  a  well-equipped  laboratory  for  the  determination  of  minerals. 

The  Bureau  publishes,  among  other  things,  an  annual  Statistical  Bulletin  showing  by  counties  the  output  and 
value  of  all  substances  mined  or  quarried  in  California.  From  the  latest  bulletin  of  this  character,  covering  the 
calendar  year  1907,  figures  and  tables  given  in  this  pamphlet  are  taken,  in  the  belief  that  they  will  give  the  best 
idea  of  what  the  mines  of  the  State  are  producing  and  what  the  miners  are  accomplishing.

CALIFORNIA  STATE  MINING  BUREAU. 


This  iustitutiou  aims  to  l;e  the  chief  source  of  reliable  information  about  the  mineral  resources  and  mining 
industries  of  California. 

It  is  encouraged  in  its  work  by  the  fact  that  its  publications  have  been  in  such  demand  that  large  editions  are 
soon  exhausted.    In  fact,  copies  of  them  now  command  high  prices  in  the  market. 

The  publications,  as  soon  as  issued,  find  tlieir  way  to  the  scientific,  public,  and  private  libraries  of  all  countries. 

STATE   MINERALOGIST. 

Tlie  California  State  ^Mining  Bureau  is  under  the  supervision  of  a  State  ^Mineralogist  and  Board  of  Trustees. 

It  is  supported  by  legislative  appropriations,  and  in  some  degree  performs  work  similar  to  that  of  the  geological 
surveys  of  other  states,  but  its  purposes  and  functions  are  mainly  practical,  the  scientific  work  being  clearly  subordinate 
to  the  economic  phases  of  the  mineral  field,  as  shown  by  the  organic  law  governing  the  Bureau,  which  is  as  follows : 

Sec.  4.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  said  State  Mineralogist  to  malse.  facilitate,  and  encourage  special  .studies  of  the  mineral  resources 
and  mineral  industries  of  the  State.  It  shall  be  his  duty  :  To  collect  statistics  concerning  the  occurrence  of  the  economically  important 
minerals  and  the  methods  pursued  in  making  their  valuable  constituents  available  for  commercial  use:  to  make  a  collection  of  typical 
geological  and  mineralogical  specimens,  especially  those  of  economic  or  commercial  importance,  such  collection  constituting  the  Museum  of 
the  State  Mining  Bureau  :  to  provide  a  library  of  books,  reports,  drawings,  bearing  upon  the  mineral  industries,  the  sciences  of  mineralogy 
and  geology  and  the  arts  of  mining  and  metallurgy,  such  library  constituting  the  Library  of  the  State  Mining  Bureau:  to  make  a  collection 
of  models,  drawings,  and  descriptions  of  the  mechanical  appliances  used  in  mining  and  metallurgical  processes :  to  preserve  and  so  maintain 
such  collections  and  library  as  to  make  them  available  for  reference  and  examination,  and  open  to  public  inspection  at  reasonable  hours : 
to  maintain,  in  effect,  a  bureau  of  information  concerning  the  mineral  industries  of  this  State,  to  consist  of  such  collections  and  library, 
and  to  arrange,  classify,  catalogue,  and  index  the  data  therein  contained,  in  a  manner  to  make  the  information  available  to  those  desiring 
it,  and  to  provide  a  custodian  specially  qualified  to  promote  this  purpose  :  to  make  a  biennial  report  to  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  the 
Mining  Bureau,  setting  forth  the  important  results  of  his  work,  and  to  issue  from  time  to  time  such  bulletins  as  he  may  deem  advisable 
concerning  the  statistics  and  technology  of  the  miueral  industries  of  this  State.

THE   BULLETINS. 

The  field  covered  by  the  books  issued  under  this  title  is  shown  in  the  list  of  publications.  Each  bulletin  deals  with 
only  one  phase  of  mining.  Many  of  them  are  elaborately  illustrated  with  engravings  and  maps.  Only  a  nominal  price 
is  asked,  in  order  that  those  who  need  them  most  maj^  obtain  a  copy.     (See  list  on  last  page.) 

THE   REGISTERS    OF    MINES. 

The  Registers  of  Mines  form  practically  both  a  State  and  a  County  directory  of  the  mines  of  California,  each 
county  being  represented  in  a  separate  pamphlet.  Those  who  wish  to  learn  the  essential  facts  about  any  particular 
mine  are  referred  to  them.  The  facts  and  figures  are  given  in  tabular  form,  and  are  accompanied  by  a  topographical 
map  of  the  county  on  a  large  scale,  showing  location  of  each  mineral  deposit,  towns,  railroads,  roads,  power  lines, 
ditches,  etc. 

HOME  OF  THE  BUREAU. 

The  Mining  Bureau  occupies  the  north  half  of  the  third  floor  of  the  Ferry  Building,  in  San  Francisco.  On  the 
same  floor  are  the  rooms  of  the  California  State  Board  of  Trade,  and  an  exhibition  instituted  by  and  maintained 
by  the  Board  of  Trade,  illustrative  of  agriculture,  horticulture,  viticulture,  and  other  industries  of  California.  All 
visitors  and  I'esidents  are  invited  to  inspect  the  Mu-seum,  Library,  and  other  rooms  of  the  Bureau  and  gain  a  personal 
knowledge  of  its  operations. 

THE    MUSEUM. 

The  Museum  now  contains  over  20,000  specimens,  carefully  labeled  and  attractively  arranged  in  showcases  in  a 
great,  well-lighted  hall,  where  they  can  be  easily  studied.  The  collection  of  ores  from  California  mines  is  of  course 
very  extensive,  and  is  supplemented  by  many  cases  of  characteristic  ores  from  the  principal  mining  districts  of  the 
world.  The  educational  value  of  the  exhibit  is  constantly  increased  by  substituting  the  best  specimens  obtainable 
for  those  of  less  value. 

These  mineral  collections  are  not  only  interesting,  beautiful,  and  in  every  way  attractive  to  the  sightseers  of  all 
classes,  but  are  also  educational.     They  show  to  manufacturers,  miners,  capitalists,  and  others  the  character  and

quality  of  the  economic  minerals  of  the  State,  and  where  they  are  found.  Plans  have  been  formulated  to  extend  the 
usefidness  of  the  exhibit  by  special  collections,  such  as  one  showing  the  chemical  composition  of  minerals;  another 
showing  the  mineralogical  composition  of  the  sedimentary,  metamorphic.  and  igneous  rocks  of,the  State :  the  petroleum- 
bearing  formations,  ore  bodies,  and  their  country  rocks,  etc. 

Besides  the  mineral  specimens,  there  are  many  models,  maps,  photographs,  and  diagrams  illustrating  the  modern 
practice  of  mining,  milling,  and  concentrating,  and  the  technology  of  the  mineral  industries.  An  educational  series 
of  specimens  for  high  schools  has  been  inaugurated,  and  new  plans  are  being  formulated  that  will  make  the  Museum 
even  more  useful  in  the  future  than  in  the  past.  Its  popularity  is  shown  by  the  fact  that  over  120,000  visitors 
registered  last  year,  wliile  many  failed  to  leave  any  record  of  their  visit. 

THE   LIBRARY. 

This  is  the  mining  reference  library  of  the  State,  constantly  consulted  by  mining  men,  and  contains  about  5000 
volumes  of  selected  works,  in  addition  to  the  numerous  publications  of  the  Bureau  itself.  On  its  shelves  will  be  found 
reports  on  geology,  mineralogy,  mining,  etc..  published  b.v  states,  governments,  and  individuals;  the  reports  of  scien- 
tific societies  at  home  and  abroad;  encyclop.T^dias,  scientific  papers,  and  magazines;  mining  publications,  and  the 
current  literature  of  mining  ever  needed  in  a  reference  library. 

Manufacturers'  catalogues  of  mining  and  milling  machinerv  b.v  California  firms  are  kept  on  file.  The  Registers 
of  Mines  form  an  up-to-date  directory  for  investor  and  manufacturer. 

The  librarian's  de.sk  is  the  general  bureau  of  information,  where  visitors  from  all  parts  of  the  world  are  ever 
.seeking  information  about  all  parts  of  California. 

READING  -ROOM. 

This  is  a  part  of  the  Library  Department  and  is  supplied  with  over  one  hundred  current  publications.  Visitors 
will  find  here  various  California  papers  and  leading  mining  journals  from  all  over  the  world. 

The  Library  and  Reading-Room  are  open  to  the  public  from  9  a.  m.  to  5  p.  m.  dail.v.  except  Sundays  and  holidays.

THE   LABORATORY. 

This  department  identifies  for  the  prospector  the  minerals  he  finds,  and  tells  him  the  nature  of  the  wall  rocks 
or  dikes  he  may  encounter  in  his  workings;  but  this  department  does  not  do  assaying  nor  compete  with  private 
assayers.  The  presence  of  minerals  is  determined,  but  not  the  percentage  present.  No  charges  for  this  service  are 
made  to  any  resident  of  the  State.  Many  of  the  inquiries  made  of  this  department  have  brought  capital  to  the 
development  of  new  districts.  Many  technical  questions  have  been  asked  and  answered  as  to  the  best  chemical  and 
mechanical  processes  of  handling  ores  and  raw  material.     The  laboratory  is  well  equipped. 

THE  DRAUGHTING-ROOffl. 

In  this  room  are  prepared  scores  of  maps,  from  the  small  ones  filling  only  a  part  of  a  page,  to  the  largest  County 
and  State  maps;  and  the  numerous  illustrations,  other  than  photographs,  that  are  constantly  being  required  for  the 
Bulletins  and  Registers  of  Mines.  In  this  room,  also,  will  be  found  a  verj'  complete  collection  of  maps  of  all  kinds 
relating  to  the  industries  of  the  State,  and  one  of  the  important  duties  of  the  department  is  to  make  such  additions 
and  corrections  as  will  keep  the  maps  up  to  date.  The  seeker  after  information  inquires  here  if  he  wishes  to  know 
about  the  geology  or  topography  of  any  district ;  about  the  locations  of  the  new  camps,  or  positions  of  old  or 
abandoned  ones;  about  railroads,  stage  roads,  and  trails;  or  about  tlie  working  drawings  of  anything  connected 
with  mining. 

MINERAL   STATISTICS. 

One  of  the  features  of  this  institution  is  its  mineral  statistics.  Their  annual  compilation  by  the  State  ^lining 
Bureau  began  in  1894.  No  other  state  in  the  Union  attempts  so  elaborate  a  record,  expends  so  much  labor  and  money 
on  its  compilation,  or  secui-es  so  accurate  a  one. 

The  State  Mining  Bureau  keeps  a  careful,  up-to-date,  and  reliable  but  confidential  register  of  every  producing 
mine,  mine-owner,  and  mineral  industry  in  the  State.  From  them  are  secured,  under  pledge  of  secrecy,  reports  of 
output,  etc.,  and  all  other  available  sources  of  information  are  used  in  checking,  verifying,  and  supplementing  the 
information  so  gained.  This  information  is  published  in  an  annual  tabulated,  statistical,  single-sheet  bulletin,  show- 
ing the  mineral   production   liy  both   substances  and   counties.

In  the  previous  year  the  total  product  was  valued  at  $46,776,085,  so  that  the  increase  for  1907  is  $8,921,864.  The 
most  notable  increases  in  value  are  in  petroleum,  copper,  asphalt,  bituminous  rock,  cement,  brick  and  pottery  clays, 
lime  and  limestone,  macadam  and  rubble.  For  the  second  time  zinc  appears  among  the  mineral  products  of  the 
State. 

The  total  value  of  the  metallic  substances  (including  precious  metals)  for  1907  was  $24,896,483,  which  includes 
gold,  silver,  pyrites,  quicksilver,  copper,  lead,  tungsten,  zinc,  platinum  and  chrome.  The  silver  is  given  in  commercial 
value,  or  amount  received  for  it  by  the  producers. 

The  total  value  of  non-metallic  substances  was  $2,505,000.  These  substances  include  borax,  coal,  mineral  waters, 
salt,  infusorial  earth,  gypsiun,  magnesite,  manganese,  mineral  paint,  fuller's  earth,  soda,  tourmaline,  and  chrysoprase 
and  other  gems. 

The  total  value  of  the  hydrocarbons  and  gases  was  $18,029,937.  an  increase  of  $7,859,664.  The  hydrocarbons  and 
gases  include  asphalt,  bituminous  rock,  natural  gas,  and  petroleum.  The  petroleum  price  is  the  average  f.  o.  b.  at 
wells  or  stations  in  each  count.y.  The  number  of  barrels  of  oil  produced  was  40.311,171,  valued  at  $16,783,943,  as 
against  32,624.000  barrels  in  1906,  valued  at  $9,238,020.  The  increase  in  asphalt  is  large  for  the  year,  it  now  being 
made  in  the  process  of  refining  the  California  heaw  oils. 

The  total  value  of  structural  materials  was  $10,266,529.  an  increase  of  $2,407,403  from  the  previous  yeai*.  These 
materials  include  brick  and  pottery  clays,  Portland  cement,  lime  and  limestone,  macadam,  rubble  and  concrete  rock, 
paving  blocks,  marble,  granite,  standstone.  serpentine,  slate,  and  glass-sand. 

The  relative  value  of  the  principal  minerals  of  the  State  is  as  follows:  First,  petroleum;  second,  gold;  third, 
copper;  fourth,  clays  and  their  products;  fifth,  cement;  sixth,  borax;  seventh,  lime  and  limestone. 

All  the  asbestos  produced  in  California  in  1907  was  from  Placer  County.  Asphalt  was  prodi^ced  in  the  counties 
of  Kern,  Los  Angeles,  Santa  Barbara,  Alameda,  San  Luis  Obispo,  San  Francisco,  and  Ventura.  It  was  almost

TOTAL    GOLD    PRODUCT    OF    CALIFORNIA— 1848 -1907. 

While  gold  is  next  to  the  leading  mining  product,  according  to  the  gold  production  figures  of  the  U.  S.  Geolog- 
ical Survey,  its  yield  no  longer  puts  the  greatest  gold-producing  county  in  the  first  place.  The  copper  of  Shasta 
County,  together  with  its  other  mineral  products,  gives  it  the  leading  place  as  a  mineral-producing  county.  Gold  is 
more  widely  distributed  than  any  other  substance  thus  far  mined  in  California:  35  counties  out  of  the  58  in  the 
State  showing  a  gold  vield  in  1907,  and  it  is  known  to  exist  in  several  others.

BANNER    COUNTIES    IN    DIFFERENT    MINERAL    PRODUCTS— 1907. 

As  far  as  the  "banner'"  counties  in  the  different  mineral  products  are  concerned,  the  following-  is  the  record  for 
1907,  with  the  value  of  the  material  in  which  the  county  leads.  It  should  be  explained,  however,  that  certain  sub- 
stances are  put  under  the  heading  of  "unapportioued,"  which  includes  product  of  single  mines,  etc.,  in  counties,  so 
as  to  conceal  their  identity.  For  this  reason  it  is  necessary  to  put  under  this  heading  borax,  coal,  Portland  cement, 
some  gold  and  silver,  and  a  few  other  substances  formerly  credited  to  certain  counties.     This  causes  an  apparent, 

(]2) 


but  not  real,  falling  off  in  output  of  Alameda,  Amador,  Monterey,  Inyo,  Lassen.  Solano,  Napa,  San  Bernardino,  Ven- 
tura, and  a  few  other  counties  where  these  "unapportioned"  substances  occur.  If  credited  to  the  exact  county,  where 
there  is  only  a  single  operator,  private  business  would  be  made  public.  Under  these  circumstances,  the  figures  of 
value  of  output  in  some  counties  do  not  actually  represent  their  relative  rank  in  1907,  as  some  of  the  products  may 
be  placed  under  "unapportioned."  Moreover,  some  counties  lead  in  output  of  some  substances  placed  in  the  "unap- 
portioned" column,  and  these  substances  do  not  therefore  appear  after  the  name  of  the  county,  thus  reducing  the 
county  total. 

Alameda  County  leads  in  macadam  ($461,726)  and  salt  ($163,127)  ;  Butte  in  gold  ($2,786,840)  ;  Colusa  in  sand- 
stone ($78,259)  ;  El  Dorado  in  slate  ($60,000)  ;  Inyo  in  lead  ($13,096) ;  Kern  in  petroleum  ($4,673,867)  ;  Lake  in 
mineral  waters  ($130,936)  ;  Los  Angeles  in  asphalt  ($353,423),  brick  clays  ($826,831),  gypsum  ($50,000),  and  serpen- 
tine ($3,000)  ;  Madera  in  granite  ($93,372)  ;  Placer  in- asbestos  ($3,500)  ;  Riverside  in  clay  ($174,713)  :  San  Benito 
in  quicksilver  ($292,878)  ;  San  Diego  in  gems  ($206,336)  ;  Monterey  in  glass-sand  ($8,178)  ;  Santa  Cruz  in  bituminous 
rock  ($64,707),  and  lime  ($241,179)  ;  Santa  Barbara  in  infusorial  earth  ($28,948)  ;  Shasta  in  copper  ($5,568,873). 
pyrites  ($197,364),  silver  ($370,211),  and  chrome  ($5,200)  ;  Sonoma  in  paving  blocis  ($112,797)  ;  Stani.slaus  in  min- 
eral paint  ($1,720)  ;  Tuolumne  in  marble  ($60,120).  The  unapportioned  list  includes  borax,  cement,  coal,  tungsten,  and 
some  gold  and  silver;  so  none  of  these  substances  are  considered  in  making  up  the  leading  products  of  the  individual 
counties. 

To  show  the  wide  distribution  of  mineral  substances  in  California  an  analysis  of  the  statistics  for  1907  proves 
that  gold  was  produced  in  35  counties;  asphalt  in  7;  chrome  in  2;  brick  clays  in  29;  pottery  clay  in  7;  copper  in 
13;  gems  in  4;  granite  in  8;  lead  in  6:  lime  and  limestone  in  18;  macadam  in  15;  marble  in  6;  mineral  water  in  19; 
natural  gas  in  5 ;  paving  blocks  in  4 ;  petroleum  in  8 ;  quicksilver  in  9 ;  rubble  m  14 ;  salt  in  6 ;  standstone  in  4,  and 
silver  in  34.     In  certain  instances  other  substances  are  mined  or  quarried  in  only  one  county.

MINERAL  PRODUCTS  BY  COUNTIES,  1900-1907,  SUBSTANCES  AND  VALUES; 


That  full  justice  may  be  given  to  all  mineralized  counties  in  California,  the  California  State  Mining  Bureau 
publishes,  herewith,  covering  a  series  of  years,  for  the  first  time,  the  total  values  of  and  details  of  mineral  production, 
giving  to  the  several  counties  their  proper  share  of  that  which  has  been,  heretofore,  placed  under  the  general  heading 
of  " unapportioned. "  This  new  departure  will  enable  all  counties  to  use  this  publication,  properly,  for  promotion  pur- 
poses, and,  it  is  obvious,  to  their  legitimate  and  large  advantage.  In  the  annual  bulletins  the  use  of  the  "unappor- 
tioned" column  is  still  necessary  and  will  be  so  always.  But  there  is  no  reason  why  the  various  richly  mineralized 
portions  of  the  State  should  not  have  their  mineral  wealth  known,  as  representing  the  output  of  a  period,  and  it  is 
and  will  be  the  purpose  of  this  Bureau  to  spread  information  of  this  kind  as  widely  as  possible,  for  the  purpose  of 
enlightening  those  who  are  seeking  for  mining  investments  or  places  in  which  to  place  their  capital  in  plants  for  the 
production  of  such  minerals  as  are  common  to  a  large  majority  of  California  coiiuties.  The  Bureau  believes  that  the 
detailed  statements  will  prove  of  value  to  all  localities  and  to  the  State  of  California  as  a  whole. 

In  1894  the  California  State  Mining  Bureau  began  to  keep  a  record,  based  on  the  individual  returns  of  pro- 
ducers, of  the  annual  mineral  output  of  this  State.     The  woi-k  is  now  widened  in  its  scope. 


•  Unapportioned  is  not  given  by  years,   as  such  segregation  would  reveal  private  business  in  many  instances.

The  County  Maps. 

The  county  maps  in 
this  pamphlet  show 
all  towns,  post  offices, 
railroads,  stage  lines 
carrying  passengers, 
mail  and  express,  and 
distances  between 
points,  forming  a  use- 
ful and  handy  guide 
especially  to  all  who 
wish  to  leave  the  rail- 
road and  penetrate  to 
the  interior  of  the 
miningdistricts.  They 
also  show  all  post 
routes.  These  maps 
have  been  brought  up 
to  date  (Jan.  1.  1909,) 
and  must  not  be  re- 
produced without  ob- 
taining permission 
from  the  State  Mining 
Bureau.
